Pretty funny how I bought stock in SAP, then sold L-3 on installing it. I even got a promotion for shafting CSW with it! Didn't you read my blog? I side stepped all of the important questions and ignored the rest. I had SAP modified so much no one... — read more 

knock knock....anyone home at L-3 CSW??? Asleep at the wheel again?? Nordstrom's report said finance was 50-60% overstaffed, directors and middle management over staffed, Ops needs to take a cut but, you fired 220 performing engineers at a time when... — read more 

A simple question, do they the ding-a-lings that run csw secretly work for our competitors? You hire like drunken sailors for ten years straight never asking anyone who matters if we even needed to hire more people, the empire builders got away with... — read more 

The article in the Trib about the layoff is a complete joke, did the idiots running/ruining l-3 write it for you and you just cut and pasted it in? First of all the number for the year is more like 800 at this point (more Monday and Thursday) we even... — read more 

What sort of worries does L-3 have about the laid off employees?

L3 worries about the angry disgruntled workers they laid off. Maybe they should worry more about the angry disgruntled workers they have.

Meeting yesterday with management was demoralizing. At the first layoff, we were assured if we were top performers we would be here for years. Knowing that can't be said anymore we instead reminded that layoffs are happening industry wide. Maybe Home... — read more 

well with so many people gone, the manager to employee ratio must be half of whatever it was. My guess is 4 to 1 if you count team leads.

Who is going to axe management? It's a buddy chain all the way down from the top. They are all good buddies or relatives. Does anyone not know the relationship between the director of engineering and the president of CSG? As the cost of buildings... — read more 

Slappy....I sure hope so, it's bc of those greedy half wits that we are all sitting where we are today.

The ones here who are still working at L3 and seem all bewildered about what's going on, WAKE UP!!! L3 is not going to make it. Lockheed Martin is buying them out. They will get rid of everyone except those Lockheed Martin wants to keep cuz they have... — read more 

So I hear management is getting axed in 2 weeks. Any truth to that?

The idiot decision makers are covering their ass right now by getting rid of engineering salaries. Yeah, all those moron managers will still have their job for a while and the upper management will continue to take their lavish vacations on the backs... — read more 

It's scary when this toxic site is the only place to go to get information about what is happening at work .

Val didn't even send out a letter acknowledging what happened. I knew they were going to cut deep in engineering putting us into mandatory overtime. I worried that this was going to cause a tidal wave of the best people left to leave after the... — read more 

Very unsettled. I was going to stick it out as best I could through layoffs, figuring out EnCompass and sequestration until the company figured out what it was doing. After yesterday, after seeing who was laid off, I am done.

My last post here. it is nothing but a bunch of trolls and most have never worked at L3. What joke this site it, comedy central

Waht I do not understand is why they let go of the best? In the mechcanical engineering group they really blew it. I see a guy who does notthing but walk up and down the long hallway with hands in his pokects just strollng all day long hallway in... — read more 

Well I made it past today. I actually love working at L3. I feel like I make a difference in saving lives. Maybe all those laid off today did not have the same goal, NO way am I safe as they laid off the entire MPM team. I will not speak ill of L3 as... — read more 

The layoff had to happen. L3 couldn't keep growing without running the risk of becoming L7 (L7 used to mean "square" which was a bad thing to be in the 50's and 60's).

@ Skunky: CSW has definitely violated rules and regulations. But, no one challenged it, per severance payouts. It's awful.

You got it, Butt Pirate Captain Overlord! I too wondered about age as it seems there were many affected people in the age group you mentioned. They said they were careful to avoid the appearance of age discrimination, but I wonder how the numbers... — read more 

@BEP: I agree. We need to be more loving to everyone, even those that are rude to you, during tumultuous events, and every day. It's difficult I know, when you know your manager failed you and him and the company, all at once. He is learning as well... — read more

@Cooter; I love laying on the hood & listening to the Doobie Brothers on my 8 track. Car show coming up and I'm charging the whole day to overhead!

@ Ceiling Cat: Good NEWS; We ran DNA test from attitude you left in litter box and we know who you are? You will be run down by forklift next time you cross parking lot. That is all.

@ Trans Am man: Dude, do you get a "back, crack and sack-wax" like me, or what?? I love it!!! Feel so clean, mmm hmmm!

Ceiling CAT society loves to hear your thoughts on this! You have overcome the hate of the internets and the layoffs! For this, Ceiling CAT awards you a lifetime of "meows" and "meooooowwwwww meow meow meowwwww!" Ceiling CAT approves of your... — read more 

To those who got laid off: don't believe that you were let go because you were a bad employee. I looked at the list of guys in my group who left, and I was shocked at who they were. I saw names of guys who I would put in the "solid overachiever"... — read more 

Been with L3 long enough to recognize a pattern. Every 5 years the company has to let go all of the people they over hired. Next year the company will get a big payoff from Mr. Hatch and the hiring frenzy will start back up, the place will start... — read more 

Has everyone on this site gone stark raving mad? Is this the best and brightest that L3 has to offer or the disgruntled has been idiots that should have never been hired in the first place? I think the posts speak for themselves. Yep a representation... — read more

I'm going to work for the SLURM (mmmmmmmm!) factory!!! I LOVE SLURM!!! I wonder why it is so good!!! nom nom nom mmmmmm yum

Why is it the fault of management? From where I sit the fault lies with the people on the floor who no matter what we do refuse to do anything but sabotage the process. I can only imagine what the place would look like if it was not for management... — read more
